Definitions
- the present invention relates to a body or car processing plant with an innovative device for holding and centering bodies in processing stations.
- Processing is understood below to mean all processing operations such as welding, finishing and assembly of parts and completion with mechanical members, glass et cetera and dressing the car which can be performed on members such as motor car bodies or the like from purposeful as well as known work stations.
- 'bodies' is meant cars in the completion stage and not only naked bodies.
- the general purpose of the present invention is to remedy the above mentioned shortcomings by making available a body processing plant in which the precision positioning members also fulfill the function of holding the body without further encumbrances in the station and with no need of independent holding members in the individual stations but keeping the individual conveyance devices simple and economical.
- a body or car processing plant with work stations and means of conveying bodies between work stations comprising reference members assembled on the conveyance means to support the body on the conveyance means during transfer between work stations characterized in that the reference members comprise means for grasping the body or car in completion and holding it steadily against them when operated by actuators mounted in the station.
- FIG 1 partially illustrates a plant designated as a whole by reference number 10 comprising a conveyance plant made up of an overhead rail 11 on which run conveyance means 12 which are advantageously conveyors or self-propellers and have motors 13 and bearing hangers 14 for supporting the bodies 15 to be processed e.g. welded.
- the hanger conveyors convey the bodies or cars among a plurality of work stations or cells of which one designated by reference number 16 is shown in FIG 1.
- a similar conveyor system and the processing equipment in the stations are well known to those skilled in the art and are therefore not further described or shown.
- the hanger 14 comprises a frame 19, 20 with arms 18 from which support or reference members 17 on which the body is rested project above.
- each support 17 includes a vertical stem 22 with a positioning pin 35 at its top end.
- the pin 35 has a tapered end - conical for example - and is designed to engage with minimal side play in an appropriate reference seat 23 in the body 15.
- the stem 22 defines a table 34 for supporting the body. The combination of the table 34 and the pin 35 supplies a precise positioning reference for the body with respect to the stem 22.
- the stem 22 is hollow and inside it are a pair of rods 37, 38 extending along the axis of the stem to end above in a clamp 39, 40 each and below in a handling end pivoted at 46 to a sleeve 47 mounted in a running manner on the outside of the stem 22.
- each rod has a slot 41, 42 shaped as a cam to run on a pin 43 fastened in the stem.
- the slot 41, 42 has a first vertical upper section and a second lower section inclined outwardly in the direction of the extension of the clamp associated with the rod.
- the slot is shaped so that when the sleeve 47 is in its lower rest position as shown in FIG 2 and hence when the pin 43 is in the vertical section of the slot the clamps 39, 40 are arranged at the two sides of the positioning pin 35 with the grasping end resting on the positioning table 34 as may be seen in FIG 3.
- dash-dot lines for the left-hand clamp in FIG 3 by raising the sleeve 47 the cams provided by the slots 41, 42 and the pin 43 cause return of the clamps 39, 40 into the positioning pin 35.
- actuators 44 are placed in the stations to grasp a corresponding sleeve upon arrival of a body and open or close the clamps as required for body loading, unloading or processing.
- the supports 17 are assembled transitorily on the hanger and protrude below with one of their spherical ends 26 to be grasped by grasping and positioning devices 27 arranged in the work stations.
- the stem 22 has a hemispherical fifth wheel 24 resting in a complementary seat 25 in the respective hanger arm 18. The stem 22 continues downward beyond the seat 25 and ends below in the above mentioned spherical end 26.
- the grasping devices 27 are made with a pair of movable jaws 28 powered by a kinematic mechanism 36 to close on the lower end of the positioning member 17.
- Each jaw comprises vertical rollers or bearings 29, 30 and a pair of rollers or bearings 31 arranged horizontally.
- the two rollers 31 of the pair of which only one is visible in the FIGS are arranged symmetrically with respect to a vertical plane passing through the two clamps.
- the rollers 29, 30 are designed to be arranged above and below the equatorial diameter of the sphere 26 and the rollers 31 are designed to rest on the sphere 26 side by side and in an intermediate position between the rollers 29, 30. In this manner upon closing of the jaws the center of the sphere 26 is positioned accurately in the device 27.
- the holding position is slightly raised over the position of the sphere 26 when the fifth wheel 24 is resting in the hanger seat 25 so that the positioning member 17 is raised and released by the hanger when it is grasped by the jaws 28.
- one of the jaws 28 supports the actuator 44 which operates a fork 45 to slide it axially to the stem 22 between the two positions shown respectively in solid and dash-dot lines in FIG 2. The two positions allow the fork to position itself above or below the sleeve when the jaws are closed.
- grasping means 27 grasp the positioning members with the forks 45 lowered and then raise the forks to move the sleeves 47 upwards and draw in the clamps 39, 40 as shown in FIG 4.
- the grasping means 27 are opened and the hanger can convey the body among the various processing stations. During conveyance the clamps are rested on the edges of the positioning hole 23 of the body (FIG 2).
- the grasping means 27 of the station close on the positioning members 17 to raise them from the seats 25 in the hanger and position them accurately with respect to the station. Closing of the jaws is however performed after operation upward of the actuator 44 so that the fork 45 is located over the sleeve 47. The actuator 44 is then operated downward so that the clamps 39, 40 firmly hold the body between them and the supporting table 34 to prevent all possibility of movement of the body with respect to the positioning members.
- the actuator 44 raises the fork 45 and the grasping means 27 are opened so that the hanger can resume its travel towards the next station.
- conveyance means can vary depending on specific exigencies.
- overhead conveyor systems with or without incorporated vertical hoisting members for the load bearing support can be employed as well as skid, roller, chain, push-conveyor et cetera conveyance systems.
